Today is Iran hostage crisis day #7

Seven days of the British government acting like scared little girls

Seven days of the Iranian government showing the world why allowing them to have nukes would be insanity

Seven days of reminding all of us why the Iranian cult leaders need to be destroyed

Seven days for the Iranian underground opposition to (hopefully) plot the overthrow of the mullahs

Seven days of some serious 1979 deja-vu

If they get nukes, Western civilization as we know it comes to an end. They will no doubt attack us by proxy, i.e radical groups kidnapping and bombing at will to show how "great" they are. Bush may act, but you can be sure nobidy else will, and they will villify him if he does. God help us.

Can't wait to hear the leftists say it's all our or Bush's fault. They're the good guys.

I think they should get an ultimatum. 48 hours. And then we destroy their country. Every bridge, railroad, refinery, natural gas / oil pipeline, electrical plant, army command, gov't building...all of it.

They have said they're going to mine the Straights of Hormuz...so first we have to sink their entire navy and submarine fleet.

Then we can go in and drop some paratroopers on their nuke site and destroy it.

If they do mine the Straits, then I say we use some tactical nukes on their cities.

I think that too much is being read into this by many people posting here.

The mullahs are just having fun with the Brits, they know the British are on their way out of Iraq and this event will hasten the process, without fear of reprisal from the Brits. Look at the price of crude for the last month. See a recent spike upwards? This hostage-taking has already had its intended effect....the Iranians get more money for their crude. The hostages will remain in captivity until summer demand ticks up and the price can remain high without a 'crisis'.

For those thinking of bombing Iran, do you think that the Iranians would hesitate to send a few hundred thousand Revolutionary guards across the border into Iraq to attack our troops?

Britian and the world community showing Iran any weakness now would be a fatal tell

This is a chess move by Iran. Weakness here means they have carte blanche with the nuke issue. Strength and they'll back down quick on both fronts.

They're looking for the tell. And Blair is letting them know he's a powerless pus&y. Just like Carter 30 years ago

More Russian Iran War Warnings
Russian Intel Sees US Military Buildup On Iran border
From Webster Tarpley
http://en.rian.ru
3-27-7

MOSCOW (RIA Novosti) -- Russian military intelligence services are reporting a flurry of activity by U.S. Armed Forces near Iran's borders, a high-ranking security source said Tuesday.

"The latest military intelligence data point to heightened U.S. military preparations for both an air and ground operation against Iran," the official said, adding that the Pentagon has probably not yet made a final decision as to when an attack will be launched.

He said the Pentagon is looking for a way to deliver a strike against Iran "that would enable the Americans to bring the country to its knees at minimal cost."

He also said the U.S. Naval presence in the Persian Gulf has for the first time in the past four years reached the level that existed shortly before the invasion of Iraq in March 2003.

Col.-Gen. Leonid Ivashov, vice president of the Academy of Geopolitical Sciences, said last week that the Pentagon is planning to deliver a massive air strike on Iran's military infrastructure in the near future.

A new U.S. carrier battle group has been dispatched to the Gulf.

The USS John C. Stennis, with a crew of 3,200 and around 80 fixed-wing aircraft, including F/A-18 Hornet and Superhornet fighter-bombers, eight support ships and four nuclear submarines are heading for the Gulf, where a similar group led by the USS Dwight D. Eisenhower has been deployed since December 2006.

The U.S. is also sending Patriot anti-missile systems to the region.

We need to act now. If Britain doesn't act to get there soldiers back then the U.S. should. Iran does this nonsense every time the we put pressure on them for nukes.

We have to stand up to these wimps. They get away with this crap because they do it in the name of religion.

I say we defend our British friends and go get them. We have the technology and the strategic location to be able to make a change in Iran. Now is the time.

WTF right do we have to regulate what kind of weapons Iran has? For all of the BULLSH*T blabbering the USA does it is the only nation in the world to have used nuclear weapons DELIBERATLY targeting civilians in Japan.

Iraq was a lesson to the world. If you are unable to defend yourself and you tell the truth by cooperating with the United Nations then you will be invaded and occupied as your population is raped and murdered so the natural resources can be pillaged.

Bush is truely an imbecile. About 75% of Japan's oil moves through the Strait of Hormuz. Should Iran be able to close it up by sinking junk ships in the water or deploying mines it will be the end of the world as we know it. China will invade Taiwan to take it back and will probably nuke the Japanese to pay them back for the masacres of WW2. Meanwhile, the US troops in Iraq will run out of fuel and supplies. It will be a hell of walk back to Saudi Arabia or Turkey to get out.

Any sane person can see the writing on the wall -- the US will of course bomb Iran in the name of saving the world from nuclear terrorism.

And given Iran's recent show of evil capability and intent, who would say that bombing is not in the best interests of most of humanity in the long run. What's the alternative, trust Iran to only enrich uranium for peaceful purposes? Give me a break.

There's too much complacency in Europe, in the US, and downright resistance in Russian and China for the world to diplomatically halt Iran's drive to intimidate, threaten, coerce and have it's way once nuclear bombs are in its hands.

If anyone doubts what the current Iran regime has in mind, just watch the news.

The problem is if you nuke or attack Iran you are opening a can of shit that we as a nation might not be prepared to see through. Look at 9/11 - most people don't even remember what happened. It was ra ra ra at the beginning, and then the public moved onto more important things like housing, and superbowls, and completely forgot what happened. People in this country, US, can't see past tomorrow. Its very sad. Our forefathers fought wars that were burnt into their minds until the day they died. They knew what it meant at the moment and could recognize "hate" again if it rose up in the world again. They had no problem bringing "hate" to its knees. Today, is a different story. Most people can't tell you what 2+2 is, much less that history has a means of repeating itself. The Persians know this. God save us...

The brain damange is just too much.

Britain went into Iran? Really? The ship was anchored in Iraqi water. So says the captain.

You believe Iranian nutjobs over British? You need mental help.

We'll destroy Iran. Burn everything. It will make the price of oil go UP, not down. And I don't know that they'll be able to do anything about it...no airforce, no navy (after it's destroyed). We'll probably not put any troops on the ground. Just blow up their nuclear facilities.

"What right do we have to decide what weapons they have?" Idiot, they signed the non-proliferation agreement. They AGREED not to have nukes.

You'd have no problem with a bunch of nutcases who make the Turks in "Midnight Express" look reasonable having nukes. You need mental help.

If peak oil is so true, why aren't the french, japanese invading iran? They have no oil at all? The US at least produces 5-6 mm barrels a day.

blogger said...

pretty simple folks. Iran is not Iraq.

Yes, I know many think it's the same country. Same general area. People look similar. Same weather patterns. Each has lots of oil.

But.. big shocker... Iran is not Iraq. It'd be like saying France is Poland.

Loyal HP'ers know I've wanted to see Iran's nuke capability taken out for a long time - over a year. Once Hitler Jr. called for the destruction of Israel, I was for Israel bombing them the next day.

But it's all been foretold. Hitler Jr. told us what he was going to do, and now he's simply in the act of doing it. We all knew he was going to start a skirmish, we all know he wants this epic battle, so that his hidden imam will reappear.

Well, I'm willing to take the chance he's wrong on that one. Even though that'd be some kick-ass CNN video.

Iran is not Iraq folks. We have no business in Iraq and no legitimate reason for ever going in, and once we were there we screwed it up about as bad as we could. Nation building we suck at. But bombing we're pretty good.

So England needs to give Iran a deadline, asap, and stick to it. If they ignore it, all bets are off. Blair leaves in just a few weeks anyway, so watch Tony go out with a bang.

And if you think the housing crash is bad today, just wait. Is that the other shoe I see?

Ignorance is not bliss. No matter what the Democrats and Republicans and their ilk tell you.

If Iranian people can't take control of there government then they don't deserve a government. We need to do all that is necessary to defend British friends and stop dealing with criminals. The only weapon the Revolutionary Guard has is to convince women and children to blow themselves up in a crowded market with families.

the iranians have never done anything to us nor has any arab ever done anything to this nation. we should not be in iraq. we should not be in afghanistan. we have killed countless innocent people. our nation is not what it would appear to be. we have governments within government. there are forces at work here that many americans do not understand nor seem to care about. these same forces are in control of our economy and are hard at work to destroy this nation. they are destroying our military by getting them bogged down in wars that never end. so now they will destroy our economy with out of control spending of freshly printed worthless bank notes and unbridled illegal immigration. many things can be said on this but these facts are just a very small part of the overall program. perhaps we as americans should wake up from our slumbers and realize that we as a nation are near the end of our national existence. but go tell that to the blind americans who are living their pathetic selfish lives, thinking that they are a free people.

Once again Keith you are wrong.

British soliders were in Iranian water and were justly captured.

The US has been fomenting war with Iran for years.

A stated agenda to invade Iran has been on the table for years.

And guess why Keith...you got it bro...OIL.

It is about the oil Keith...and you will be posting about the great oil crash and oil grab wars in just the next couple of months.

This attack will amplify the effects of peak oil. Last year Saudi oil production was 9.2 million barrels per day...this year 8.1...and declining.

Mexico's oil field Cantarell is in catastrophic decline and will be halved in production in less than 2 years...the Burgan field, the 40's field, the north sea, the north shore...ALL MAJOR LARGE OIL FIELDS ARE IN TERMINAL DECLINE. And no new large fields are being found.

Please - all you cracked out lazy americans - please don't say "renewables", please don't say ethanol...or hybrids...the math has bee done and we are screwed.

Therfore...

Without oil...no food...no food...we die of starvation...

attacking Iran has zero to do with nukes and everything to do with fat lazy americans driving escalades...PERIOD.

Do explain how Iran is in the right by capturing the British sailors who were in, basically, an inflatable boat? How many warnings did the Iranians give them to turn around? Did the Iranians really think those 15 sailors were making a landing asault?

Oh, and what parading the captured sailors about on TV? Making the female wear the scarf on her head? Would the British make a capture Iranian female take her scarf off before they paraded her around on TV?

Lucky the British are hotheads like the Iranians, otherwise the Cornwall would have taken the Iranians hostage for trespassing in Iraqi waters. Perhaps they should next time.

2) For the past decade Europeans including the Brits have been supporting morally and financially anything that could hurt the great Jewish people, its now back firing big time!, and this is only the beginning, by propping up the short term enemies of Israel, Europeans have empowered these idiot oil rich mullahs who are now out of control.

My what a bunch of armchair generals we have here today. Our military is stretched to the breaking point with Afghanistan and Iraq and now you want to attack Iran. Sorry folks but the nuclear genie was let out of the bottle long ago. Nuclear non-proliferation is an unattainable pipe dream. The Iranian people are decidedly pro west and like America for the most part. The party of President Ahminejad lost a significant number of seats in their last election and if we are patient the Iranians will eventually rid themselves of him and his ilk. If we start dropping bombs on them, and especially nukes, I am sure they would rally against us and it would be never ending war for generations. And don't talk to me about nuking the entire middle east and turning it into a glass bowl. Nukes used on that scale would pollute and contaminate the entire planet and we would be committing suicide. Everyone just take a deep breath and let Britian and Iran work this out themselves.

Obviously, Iran wants to escalate. I'm not sure if the US even needs to occupy Iran when you can just waste it. Iran will never make it across the desert because the sky is going to be swarming with the American air force.

undermined the future for coming
generations by not being 'hard' on
ourselves and the kids.

Now we face ruin in a world that
has taken life seriously while we
grew fat and ignorant. It's not
that we don't deserve to suffer,
but we have failed the hope of
America ... to be an anchor of
progress in an ugly world.

It's too late to avoid calamities.
But the sooner we clean up our act,
the sooner the pain will abate.

"Iraq doesn't want a democracy. We ought to pull out but let them know that we will control-alt-delete them again if they become a problem."

"Time to control-alt-delete Iran."

---------------------------------

I don't agree completely. I still think a little more US time on the ground in Iraq might give the gov't and the people of Iraq a better chance to withstand the terrorists when the US pulls out.

But I do think that all the people who have said over and over that you can't win with an air campain without troops on the ground are wrong. It just depends on what you are trying to accomplish.

I think that if it were easier to pull the trigger and bomb a rogue regime when it tests the boundies, these rogue regimes would be less likely to do so. It is the fact that they know there will always be resistance to such actions that let's things fester so that when they are finally dealt with they have snowballed to enormous porportions.

I don't want us bombing every country that stirs up trouble as a first resort. I'm proud of the fact that our culture looks to solve things without violence where possible, but there are times that there are no good option.

In the interest of full disclosure: No I have not served in the military and unless we wind up in a far bigger war, I don't plan to be signing up at my age. I do however have several family memebers (amongst them a brother and two nephews) and friends who have served and who are serving in Iraq and/or Afganistan, some who signed up in response to 9-11 and others who were serving prior to it and have reupped multiple times. So does having lots of loved ones in harms way allow me the right, right or wrong, to support military efforts if I think they are necessary?

Keith, how do you reconcile your opinion about Iran with:

http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/15947213/


- I'm not convinced that Iran is evil.
- I'm not convinced that Iran does not have a right to nuclear power (not bombs).
- I'm not convinced that it is United States' job to prevent Iran from creating a nuclear bomb.
- I'm not convinced that Iran would use a nuclear bomb (if they had one) because they know they would be obliterated in a heartbeat.

It's all Bush's fault that the Iranians took the British sailors hostage. It's a neocon conpsiracy. The Jews are involved too. So are the fat lazy ignorant Americans watching sports all the time.

A quid-pro-quo solution, so becoming of a Mid-east souk, or a Justice Dept. payoff is available. The US releases the legally present, invited by the govt too, Iranian semi-diplomats that they've rounded up in Iraq in Jan. / Feb and who haven't been heard of since ( Gitmo anyone?) and the Iranians release these Brit. marines and sailors.

The Iranin Al-Qud operatives that have been picked up by the US for training and supplying IEDs stay imprisoned until the US leave.

That would be a sane solution. The US is on the way home anyway so these efforts by the Iranians to influence events in Iraq will continue regardless and best counteracted by bringing in Sunni Saud operatives - a grand equilibrium while the US extricates itself.

But with two nutters in power, here and in Iran, two nutters with a weakened political base and very low popular support - this is a crisis made for both of them.

And with a ignorant populace no unwilling to actually keep up with the news, this crisis will continue on a steady diet of half-truths, lies, gung-ho rhetoric and mutual incomprehension.

Meantime, the people suffer.

"WTF right do we have to regulate what kind of weapons Iran has? For all of the BULLSH*T blabbering the USA does it is the only nation in the world to have used nuclear weapons DELIBERATLY targeting civilians in Japan."

And what did Japan do to the U.S. on Dec 7, 1941, you dummy? Are you aware of the suicidal tactics that the military of Japan was using to keep the war going indefinitly and make it deadlier by the day, you twit?

Whether it was right or wrong, the U.S. used nukes to end a war that would have killed many more than the nukes did had it continued. This does not compare to muslims desire ro use nukes against people who do not wish to convert to their primitive religion.

Keep up the good work Keith. We don't have to agree on everything, but I respect your free thinking. That's why I keep coming back to this blog.

What people don't remember was that during the last Iranian hostage crisis the Soviet and American hostages were both taken. Carter the pussy did nothing, until he was forced to politically and then you had the disaster rescue attempt. The Commies on the other had their special forces take some of their own hostages. The exchange was done problem solved.

However this is not a liberal vs. conservative issue. Our soldiers are mocked in Iraq because we have ridiculous rules of engagement that only allow for our soldiers to be sitting targets. Bush's policy is to be nice to insurgents and take them to court... The Iraqi people laugh at our weakness and have a running joke on wanting to stay at Abu Ghraib because of getting a square meal & some AC. These people come from an unforgiving desert land and respect force and power. But being America centric doesn't allow this to compute for most well meaning Americans.

The mighty Royal Navy with its rich history has fallen on tough times indeed.

You must be a really good expect on Arab cultures! It is us Christians AGAIN messing up there things when all they want is LEAVE THEM ALONE.

"There follows a list of Christian countries I can think of that have been conquered by Moslems since the Industrial Revolution: (NONE)

On the other hand, to the best of my admittedly weak historical understanding, the following Islamic countries have been conquered by Christians: Egypt, Lebanon, Palestine, Syria, Jordan, Chad, Pakistan, Bangla Desh, Libya, Indonesia, Yemen, Morocco, Tunisia, Algeria, Turkmenistan, Tajikistan, Iran, Iraq, Kuwait, Kyrgyz, Kazakhstan, Somalia, Sudan, and Uzbekistan, to name a few. On various occasions Christians have tried to conquer Afghanistan, but with no better luck than they deserved. "

Wow, how things have changed in three years! What a bunch of hypocritical weasels Brits are!

From Thursday, 24 June, 2004:

"Iran releases British servicemen

The eight British servicemen held in Iran since Monday have been released, the UK government has said.

The men were seized in the Shatt al-Arab waterway, where they were training the Iraqi river patrol service. British officials have said that the men may have mistakenly strayed over the maritime border...

"I'm obviously very pleased indeed, as, I know, their families and service colleagues will be, that they are now in British care," he said.

Mr Straw defended the fact that it has taken four days to secure the release of the men.

"These things do sometimes take time," he said"

All playing nice and lovely back then and now Iran is the next Nazi Germany...

someone said , what right do we have to tell the iranians what they can have and can't have? and the correct answer to that question is none....we have absolutely no right to tell them anything. how would you feel if some country came here to the states and surrounded this country with military ships and started having war games off of our coast? how would you feel? now granted the poisonous rhetoric coming out of the mouth of Mahmoud Ahmadinejad does not help matters. but, it must be noticed by anyone with half a brain that such statements at this time or any time or just strange to say the least. it is almost as if he is trying to provoke someone. now then, why would he intentionally provoke someone? good question. this is do not know, but i can tell you is that it appears that this whole thing is one big script and these players on the stage are performing their parts flawlessly.....so the americans go to work, raise their families , bitch about taxes and higher prices, while participating in the high cost of low prices at walmart and never, and i repeat, never see or understand anything about this. the war is far off for them. heck, my children are not involved in it, so why worry about it? well this will change soon as they reinstitute the draft. so the war that never ends continues unabated, searching tirelessly for the boogie man bin laden, a man created by our own CIA...oh yes my friends, he was one of theirs and he also has performed his part in this play very well. for you see, this whole disgusting episode in our national history, was started, less we forget by the allegeged attack on us by bin laden on 911. is this not correct? so then we take off and suddenly are in a position to attack afghanistan and those evil taliban and saddam hussein, both of these entiities of which we ourselves created, also lest we forget. and so now we are bogged down in wars that we never should be fighting. and for what? who knows at this point. the conjecture on that question could go on for a long time, but i know the true reason. i leave it to ou all to find out this simple truth......it is like president eisenhower( a notorious traitor) said one time.....beware the military industrial complex....it is not interesting how we as americans manufacture almost nothing of importance anymore, but we damn sure can make war toys with reckless abandon......can't we? and so the play continues and men are killed and men die and we argue and we complain and we vote and we point fingers and nothing changes. i ask you now, where have we been and where are we going? who are we? who are we really (at this point)? God only knows i think. the constitution has been said to be a god damn piece of paper by the traitor that now inhabits thw white house, a house that we ourselves built with the blood and sacrifice of a very small percentage of american men and women during the late 1700's. yet we somehow now, have forgotten all of this. that god damn piece of paper with those precious bill of rights, are still there, neglected and chastened somewhat by our own learned ignorance but still there nevertheless. so now after 50 years of dumbing down in our government schools we have volunteer soldiers that fight invisible enemies in innocent countries for a goal that is never achieved. This is the ameica we live in now. We have ourselves to blame. we are truely......our own worst enemies.

Then check out the size of the different atomic arsenals (US vs USSR) during the Cuban Missile crisis the idea we were on the verge of atomic war is also bull shirt - I think (don't quote me) we had 10,000 warheads vs 800 in the USSR yeah Russia wanted to go head to head with us - as if.

well let's see. first we were told that we went to Iraq, because they participated in 911 and they had wmd's which they were threatening us with. Now, I ask you. Where are the wmd's? Where is the proof that Iraqis attacked us on 911? So now from time to time, a video surfaces almost magically as if on que, showing some tall, thin bearded man in a cave somewhere with a brand new never fired ak47 by his side, making strange statements. Yet this man has never said he attacked us on 911, but this little fact is somehow lost in the reels of news footage on the subject. Yet we attack afghanistan because they say the Taliban participated in 911. Well, where is the proof? Then we come to find out that a American company had been negotiating with the Taliban for the rights to build a oil and gas pipeline through Afghanistan and those talk were at a standstill. Seems our boys in the Turbans wanted a bigger cut of the action so they were put on the enemies of the state list. Also, the Taliban were somewhat strict about things and had put a end to the lucrative drug trade, in opium products from the poppies grown in afghanistan. This could not be allowed to happen. Since certain parties in our own government who benefit from the drug trade, could not allow this type of blockage of their flow of funds eminating from the sale of opium, well our Taliban friends had to be brought down. So it was told to us that they were evil men and they needed to be stopped. So our armies moved in and are now trying to destroy them. But , the going has been tough and will always be so. For it can be said that no army has ever conquered Afghanistan. None, ever, and ours will be no different.
Saddam Hussein was said to have wmd's but didn't have any. What he had done was change over to euros in his banking practices for the sale of his precious oil commodity. He was attempting to become a powerful arab leader, and had delusions of being another Nebuchadnezzar. This could not be allowed to happen. We created him and so we took him down and then we hung him for war crimes which he purportedly committed. But we ourselves have committed numerous atrocities in these wars. Certainly not the least of which would be the usage of depleted uranium enhanced shells and bombs. Anyone doing a cursory search of the internet for information concerning these weapons will find out the terrible truth. We have now poisoned and totally destroyed Iraq forever. Its people's will die a slow death for generations to come as we shall also. For you see, what we have done to them there, and in Afghanistan and in Serbia, will come back to haunt us as it is now already. Even now , all these years after the first gulf war, we have sick and dying soldiers, from a malady that no one wishes to discuss, at least not publically or officially. So now we have dumped tons of this material on Iraq in one form or the other, furthering the damage already done to the earth's ecosystem there and elsewhere and as it was in the first gulf war, so it shall be in this one. The soldiers coming home from this war will undoubtedly become sick or are already sick without even knowing it , dying inside from uranium poisoning. Yes my friends , what we have done shall come here as the winds of this earth carry the du dust all over the planet. Even now this radioactive dust is in the states, falling on us and we are breating it in. I say thank you mr bush and mr chaney and I say thank you to the dumb American generals and leaders who have allowed this unconstitutional activity to happen and continue unabated. Isn't it strange how Bush says we are attempting to give the arabs democracy while at the same time they say they must take ours away for our own good and our own protection from the evil boogy man, whoever he happens to be this day? Wake up Americans!

I don't understand why America needs to go halfway around the world to torture and kill Muslims. The US is currently infested with Middle Easterners, so why not start the eradication here?

This silly hostage drama involving British sailors seems designed to allow England to strike the first blow against Iran. With US military "intelligence" totally discredited, maybe the world will believe what the British have to say about the incident. Once the war with Iran gets underway, the US will be forced to come to the aid of its chief European ally.

Lets hope that the conflict with Iran can be accomplished without causing us too many inconveniences here at home. It would be a real shame if gas rationing were to be accompanied by a reinstatement of the draft.

To be fair, during the cold war you really need to add russia and china's nuke numbers together as we didn't have all 10,000 pointed solely at russia.

I find it hilarious when I read "the liberal MSM". You conservative savages can't get the intelligent people who work in the media to parrot your ignorance so you label the media liberal.

The myth of the "liberal media" comes from the civil rights era when segregationists were angry that their backwards ideas weren't given proper respect by the media. Isn't that charming?

The media isn't in the business of promoting conservatism because conservatism is a gutter ideology of anti-intellectualisms and profound ignorance. But if it makes you stupid conservatives feel better about the backwards beliefs you ascribe to and allows you to feel that persecution you so desperately crave, go for it.

bitter renter, i will take it one step further. there is no difference between the political parties. they are both the same. on the outside they look like they are different but at night, when the camera lights dim, they get together and drink and eat and are merry, on us of course. there is no right and left....all of these ideas came about in the early 1900's. they were invented to make the stupid american think that somehow he has a choice. he does not. he may have never had any real choice. this life is truely a matrix where we live in our own worlds of our own making, thinking that what we see is real, but it is not. this is life as we know it now. our laws are not real and there is no remedy at law for any of us, yet it appears that there is real law. it is called color of law. when go into fight a ticket at court, the judge is payed by the county and/or city where you are. so how can he be impartial? this sort of thing goes all the way up to the top, even to the supreme court, the last constitutional court we have left and if you noticed, they illegally helped to elect a president in the year 2000. of course things being the way they are, there would not have been any difference. gore would have done things very similarily to bush. they are all members of the same team. they all have the same bosses. they all have made pacts with the devil and take his money and his power that he gives them. and, in the course of these human events, the common man and woman suffers. during all of this suffering, we argue with each other and point accusing fingers at each other and criticize each other on political and ideological grounds never realizing that it matters not one iota. all of the things that happen in this world are by plan are and are carried out to their logical conclusions, whether we like it or not. now then , it can be said that this satanic system can be stopped. but do we have the national will to do it? that is the question. and at this point, i would have to say a emphatic no...no we do not...i wish it was different, but the dumbing down by televisions and grade and learning inflation in our schools have produced functionally illiterate young people who cannot reason and who cannot rationalize or do anything closely resembling critical thinking. so it is in 2007. so it will be in 2008. so it will be till we die, unless we change. unless, we as a people understand what is at stake here and understand the forces that are alligned against us and who are out to destroy this nation and all it stands for(if it stands for anything anymore)......anyone wishing to examine what liberty is go and watch some videos about chechnya.....for what happens there is coming here....the question is will you sit on your couch and pretend it is not happening or will you take up arms to defend her and die if need be for the next generation of young people unborn as of yet....this nation once was great. it can be great again. the time is short. there is no more time for silly discussions about parties and the left right paradigm. rome is burning now. shall we pretend it is not, that is real question, isnt it?

You see, that's why you are a sheeple like the majority of people incapable of connecting dots and looking at evidence. And this is not a matter of being liberal or not.

Nobody is saying that the attack wasn't done by terrorists. We are saying that the neocons along with other powerful groups, knew about the plan and let terrorists proceed with it to accomplish their goals. Of course, there was some help on pulling all those buildings down.

No building has ever collapsed after burning completely down, BTW. Building seven wasn't hit and had minor fire, however it collapsed like the towers.

The neocons/secret society wanted an event like 9-11 to have an excuse to invade the Middle-East and secure oil fields since Peak Oil is here to stay.

the trouble with nukes is that you cannot simply go and bomb someone and expect no environmental repercussions from this event. the fallout will come back to you eventually. heck there are still many physical problems that japanese suffer from and these are associated with uranium exposure even to this day in japan. everywhere they used to have test of these horrible weapons still has environmental problems. you cannot escape it. the careless use of nukes is a tragedy of epic proportions that will have everlasting effects on mankind and this earth. many of the men who were used as guinea pigs during the post war years , while testing nukes in the deserts of this land, ended up dying from cancers etc. the du dust coming from the middle east because of our over usage of du shells and bombs is even now finally reaching these very shores born by the winds that carry these particles around the world. it cannot be escaped. so to simply state, go nuke them, you are not thinking this thing through. it is not a win win situation and mankind is the looser.

instead of worrying about what other nations are doing, why don't we stay home and mind our own business. is it not written down in our constitution that the president shall use the army only when we are attacked in this land? why do we continue to get involved in wars that make no sense? men die for nothing. the rich get richer and the poor get poorer. what is liberty? what is freedom? can we remember it or shall we forget it forever? is it too late to remember?

You Middle East is running out of oil, you idiots. There is more oil in Canada than all of Saudi Arabia. The Rocky Mountains has more oil than Saudi Arabia. South America has more oil than the Saudis. The raggies wasted all their money on Western junk and will be back to riding camels in 20 years.

if it is american's writing these comments, then I am wondering: i thought the right wing extemists were in the middle east. Turns out they are in America - don't believe me? Read these comments about nuking Iran etc. How is this different from terrorism? How are we any better than extremists in Iran? They perceive us as a threat and say, destroy Americans. We perceive them as a threat, and say nuke Iran...
If 15 Iranian sailors were caught in US waters, they would be in Cuba by now, in jail indefinately and we would not even know about it.

It is time to rethink our approach and how we are going to live with one another. If they were in Iranian waters, Britain should apologize, Bush should shut up, and they should negotiate the release. Basta. A Canadian.
